Bats...

Chris called us at the Natural History Centre this morning to report finding what she thought was a Brown Long Eared Bat in her garden at Glenegedale. The bat population, like many species (apart from birds!) is hugely under-recorded here on Islay, and the Trust has been thinking of buying a bat detector as part of a drive to get to know what is out there a little better. If anyone knows of any good bat spots or has any sightings, please let us know!

We've also had reports of an Osprey fishing over Loch Indaal yesterday afternoon, so keep your eyes peeled...
